Tuesday night massacre?

FBI Director James Comey was fired last night in what experts in authoritarian regimes are calling a “shock event.” You may recall Comey from his starring roles potentially costing Hillary Clinton the election and, more recently, investigating the Trump administration for possible collusion with the Russian government. The White House wasted no time calling for an end to the investigation — while Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway managed to completely contradict the administration in record speed.
Numerous Republicans have criticized Comey’s firing, which came days after he requested additional resources for the FBI’s investigation. But some people are celebrating, including the Trump advisers at the heart of the Russia probe.

A reporter was arrested on Tuesday after asking Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price about Trump’s health care bill — specifically whether or not survivors of domestic violence would be able to obtain insurance.

Reading List

Did you know that bosses steal millions from their workers every year?
Much has been made of the New York Times’ decision to hire a columnist with a history of climate denial — but not many are speaking out about MSNBC’s decision to hire George Will, another staunch climate denier, as a contributor.
Republicans have been working to repeal Obama-era methane rules. A surprising vote may have stopped them in their tracks.
